For artists of my caliber, we're not played on the radio, so we don't really get a chance to get involved in that debate at all. We don't get a chance, because this weird kind of ageism exists in pop music. If you're past a certain age, you're not relevant. That's the kind of cliched term.

The ultimate goal is to be more satisfied. I really don't believe you get wiser because you get older. It's a choice, perhaps not to take some things so seriously.

School is not a great place to have feminine features or a big nose, or to wear glasses or the wrong shoes.

I look at myself at 19 and think I would never do what I did then now! I was so brazen, so confident, so fearless in a way. And remember, the world was a very aggressive place then.

The entire team of 'Race 3' is really happy because the film is doing good business at the box office.

I get paralyzingly nervous a lot of times, so I tried bravado. The way I dress and carry myself, a lot of people find it intimidating. I think my whole career can be boiled down to the one word I always say in meetings: 'strength.'

I think I learned a lot from a lot of experiences that I dealt with over my career.

I'm personally in a different stage of my career than I was at the beginning. I was young and tried to run a lot and fight for things. Now it falls naturally. That's something you get with experience.
